I totally support people not wanting to give Paramount money and won't watch Starfleet Academy. But when talking about it, remember, Academy was mostly made before the Skydance merger & the creatives on the show don't necessarily support David Ellison but can't speak out about it due to their jobs.

People are scared of the spread of fascism, rightly so. We have 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 elections in May and it’s essential to keep Reform out. The far right thrive on apathy and hopelessness.

Good turn out almost always beats them. Register to vote. Why wait? Do it today

99mph wind gust Scillies
94mph Jersey Airport
90mph W Cornwall

#StormGoretti has 'unfortunately' unfolded just as forecast in terms of damaging wind speeds

Overnight attention will turn more from those areas under Red wind warnings to those under Amber snow..Wales/Midlands

BBC - and most major media outfits "used to be good" map makers. Now they rely on google their default Mercator map projection which really distorts size of land the further north one goes....which maybe reinforces the dumbasses in DC who wouldn't clue in...they are so into "who's bigger."

💯 agree. For instance, I offer many ‘carrots’ to schools why they will benefit from climate action and raising standards of climate literacy in staff and students. But also, I’m not shy in calling out failures and apathy in terms of safeguarding. Leaders are failing to protect their kids otherwise.

I'm posting this for no other reason than goats

Well, solar's a pretty good reason, too

And also, solar is the GOAT

What are your thoughts on this idea? I thought human climate niche was an old and accepted concept, didn't know it was formulated only as recently as 2019. What is the latest consensus among climate people?

When the world is going to pot, how about a delightful game of the card version of the #OregonTrail! It’s as brutal as its digital counterpart - I died from measles in the last attempt (amazing that that Calamity Card™️ is back in play in 2026 America…) But after six attempts, we made it to Oregon!

2025 goes down as the ~3rd-warmest year on record (based on ERA5).

Like in 2024, every single day this past year was warmer than the average of even the most recent reference period (1991-2020).

The US has launched an unprovoked and illegal attack on Venezuela.

This is a brazen attempt to secure control over Venezuelan natural resources.

It is an act of war that puts the lives of millions of people at risk, and should be condemned by anyone who believes in sovereignty & international law.

The catastrophe unfolding in Gaza – where Palestinians are freezing to death in tents – is not a natural disaster but a calculated outcome of Israel’s ongoing blockade, aid restrictions and continued violence morningstaronline.co.uk/article/wint...

Fascinating research on the alignment of scientific, aesthetic, educational, therapeutic and spiritual ways of seeing Trimley Marshes Nature Reserve as bodies of motivation to support community-based climate activism. Would you like to adapt this work for your community?

They don't even bother to lie badly anymore.
